senator landrieu is up for re-election in louisiana in 2014. back in 2009 she was a vocal supporter of the president's law although her vote was controversial. and how she maintained it would allow people to keep their health care plan. >> those individuals who like the coverage they already have will be able to keep their current plan. this is a very accurate description of this bill. >> fast forward to this week and the reports of millions of people getting kicked off insurance plans. the senator said, i had no idea this would happen. we have to do something. now she's introducing a bill to help people keep the plans they had and liked. but wait, we did some digging. it turns out that republicans had foreseen that an hhs regulation, health and human services, passed in 2010 after the law was passed, a change in the regulation would guarantee that all of these people would lose insurance when the law kicked in, just as they are and we all know it now. republicans warned about this in 2010. they read the federal register up like regular people.
